Blitz Devel : |

GCC developers have been using a Blitz snapshot from 20001213 for GCC
integration testing, and building and testing Blitz has been part of the
release criteria for previous GCC releases. Due to some incorrect code
in that version of Blitz and a replacement of GCC's C++ parser, that
snapshot of Blitz does not compile with the development version of GCC
which will become GCC 3.4.
Theodore Papadopoulo recommended that I try the current Blitz CVS
sources. That version builds and all of the tests pass on i686-linux
and powerpc64-linux with GCC built from the latest CVS sources.
Can the Blitz developers provide a new snapshot that GCC developers can
use for testing? I'll update GCC's "Blitz++ build and test guide" at
http://gcc.gnu.org/testing/testing-blitz.html for that new version.
I've got two minor problems to report:
1. The INSTALL file should list http://gcc.gnu.org for GCC.
2. "make" fails unless LD_LIBRARY_PATH includes the C++ runtime
libraries for the compiler being tested; compiler/bzconfig doesn't
use the LDFLAGS value that was defined when configure was run.
